Deploy Files
A simple way to get one or more files quickly onto your IoT device is to use the Deploy Files action block in a JFrog Connect workflow.
The Deploy Files action block enables the quick distribution of one or more artifacts to your devices. To deliver the files, the action block facilitates a two-step process:
- 1.Upload of the requested artifacts to Artifactory.
- 2.Devices pull the artifacts from Artifactory.
This functionality is primarily utilized for swift deployment of specific files or binaries to your devices, eliminating the necessity to upload them beforehand.
- JFrog Connect and JFrog Platform accounts. (You receive a JFrog Platform account automatically when you register for a JFrog Connect account.)
- Connect Agent 6.0 or later and at least one device registered.
- One or more files ready for deployment.
To include the Deploy Files action block in your update flow, do the following:
- 1.Go to Updates in the left sidebar and click Create Update Flow.

- 2.Drag the Deploy Files action block and drop it in the workflow.

Click the action block to open and configure it.
- 1.Enter a name for the action block.
- 2.Enter (drag and drop or browse) the file in the file box.

- 3.Enter the destination path on the device. You can also make this a variable, for example {{destination-path-on-device}}. You will then enter the value for the variable upon deployment.
- 4.If you want to deliver more than one file, click Add More. Add an additional row for each additional file to deliver.
- 5.
- 6.Save your action block configuration.
